Sorry for the bump, but I'm just curious, is there a mod for no restrictions on chassis building? Being ably to make whatever shaped chassis you want? I don't mean the kind of stuff in Bot File Editing, which I can't do, I mean more like when you're shaping the top of the chassis, and you want to make it a certain way, but for some dumb reason the game won't let you.

I could've sworn Serge made a patch that enabled that.

I don't have the SergePatcher.Py in my arenas folder. Where do I download it? I already looked through downloads but couldn't find it.

You have to use the sergepatcher version instead of the static one.

I installed the sergepatcher PY and stuff into the arenas, EXACTLY as the readme instructed, and nothing changed. It's not working.

I copy-pasted that and did everything as instructed. I edited the py file. It STILL doesn't work.

I tried the static version, which is what a regularly use, and the only thing that didn't work was the chassis points modification, which is what I currently need, and have NEVER been able to get working.

Yup, Windows 10.

Hello? Anyone?

please be patient
Sorry, I get really insecure when I ask for help, which in of itself his hard to do, and nobody replies fast enough. If there's no response for a whole day, that basically means either nobody saw it, or nobody cared enough to help.

At this point all I need is just a copy of RA2 that has the limitless chassis settings on. I gave up on trying to figure out why my installation of the mod refused to work every time.

Ok, I have some more information. I know I did the installation right. Nothing crashed, it was a fresh copy of RA2, everything was set up perfectly.

However, at the part where in the botlab I'm supposedly supposed to get access to the mods, I just get regular tips. I don't know how adding something in the arenas folder can change something in the BotLab, but whatever.

Upon exiting, I got this thing called "sergepatcher log". The instructions told me that if this happens, I need to get rid of it. If I kept having that pop up every time I opened and closed the game, I'm supposed to post the log's contents onto this specific thread.

So, here it is:

I have a HP Laptop with Windows 10 on it. Is there any chance that sergepatcher won't work because of that?

make sure none of the ENABLED MODS lines are commented out in sergepatcher.py. The start of your sergepatcher.py should look like below:
Code: [Select]
### Configuration starts here
# Comment out / remove any of the lines 4-7? to disable a mod.
ENABLED_MODS = [
"unlimited mass",             # no mass limit
"unlimited chains",           # disable 7-chain rule
"attachment hermaphroditism", # attach components to any type of AP, disabled by default
"component intersection",     # allow components to intersect any other component, disabled by default
]
# Logfile name
LOGFILE = 'sergepatcher_log.txt'
### Configuration ends here

Well, it PARTIALLY worked. I don't think the chassis thing worked though.
I got this for a sergelog:

Yeah that won't enable the chassis points mod. idk if sergepatcher even does that since I've not seen anything about it in this thread except jaydee's post. And all this does is allow you to use more points on the base chassis, nothing more. If you want to give it a go, replace the enabled mods code with the code below I guess.

Code: [Select]
ENABLED_MODS = [
"unlimited mass",             # no mass limit
"unlimited chains",           # disable 7-chain rule
"attachment hermaphroditism", # attach components to any type of AP, disabled by default
"component intersection",     # allow components to intersect any other component, disabled by default
"chassis points",             # disables 16-point chassis limit
]

Wait, when did the chassis points mod appear. I have sergepatcher with no chassis points mod, only the first four
